MENDELSSOHN SYMPHONY NO. 3 180g LP

Otto Klemperer conducting the Phiharmonia Orchestra. Mendelssohn was one of the
most gifted musicians of his age. Beginning to compose at the age of eleven he
soon showed a degree of precociousness beside which even Mozart's must appear as
less amazing. Mendelssohn enchants by an easy flow of graceful, elegantly
tailored melody, by the perfection of his form and, in his orchestral works, by
his instrumentation which is vivid, colorful and light.
